One reader said it was "a commentary on the filtering by the press" on the case and said President Obama should not have given "AA's another reason to boil their angst."

Which brought a response.

As a communications major myself, the "commentary on filtering by the press" is in fact NOT lost on me. Anyone not understanding of terms like "yellow journalism" or its historical context wouldn't even understand the cartoon. THAT is not why this cartoon is an outrage. People like YOU who don't understand why this cartoon is offensive are the ignorant people I speak. The newspapers attempt at being satirical is done so in a disgustingly distasteful way; it makes light of his death and throws around a racial slur like "colored boy."

And that "political" move you accuse the President of making did nothing to African American's that was not already there and understood. And you don't have to worry, he already has the black vote
